Beyond Gimbal Auto Calibration - M2P

[Joe Herrera]

I've noticed the horizon is just the slightest bit tilted on my M2P. I have performed the gimbal auto calibration successfully several times, but still seeing a slightly tilted horizon. Should I do a manual gimbal calibration and just live with that setting? Or send to DJI for repait? How much would that cost? Any thoughts please.

If it annoys you fix it.

If it doesn’t annoy you, straighten the image out in photoshop, cheers Len

have you checked that the gimbal plate is correctly attached to the drone and is hanging level, and also that the gimbal motors are free from debris, try using an air puffer to blow them, or a small vacuum, the hand held type to suck out any thing that might be causing friction

I once read a post where CS told an individual to do the IMU, Compass, and then the Gimbal to correct that issue. Never tried it as I don't have the problem.

In addition to gimbal calibration, you may need to perform a gimbal adjustment to level the horizon.

And while your fixing that, do a bit of color correction on your Avatar too

I'm pretty sure you don't actually have the skin tone of a blueberry...
